Here's hoping for a speedy recovery.

The Queen has visited the Duke of Edinburgh in hospital in Cambridgeshire, where he has been treated for a blocked coronary artery.
The duke, 90, had a coronary stent fitted after he was taken to hospital suffering chest pains.

Aye, I wish him well...he's a good bloke at heart, he may come out with some rather embarrassing stuff at times, but that's part of his charm.
He also served his country well during WWII.

Agreed...looks like he may get out tomorrow but I doubt he'll heed the advice to take it easy.

I have always been under the impression that the British people aren't that fond of their Kraut Prince.

That's what I mean.
Wow, I can teach the British about their royals.
